Making Memories

Jacob hasn't spent a Friday night with me in a while because he's been so busy. That's ok, I know even though he's only 9 these wonderful Friday nights we have spent together will stop as he gets older.
He did come over last night and was poking around in the kitchen when he found Grandma Clara's cookbook. Probably from the 1800's, this cookbook is torn and tattered and well used. The cover has been missing for many many years now. I still use it though. I have wonderful memories from it, especially of one night at 2 in the morning when Mom, Phyllis and I are decorating Christmas cookies that we had made earlier that day. We must have been so tired because I remember laughing so much and really enjoying the time together. Jacob and I made memories last night. Who would think that a book would bring such fun? We made our cookies and watched a movie. I'm so thankful for the love I see in this little man.

I am very happy for you sis. I have Aundi tonight and tomorrow and as much as I like my alone time I really did enjoy going for a walk with him riding his bike next to me and sparkey barking at him cuz he doesn't like bikes and Don laughing because Aundi's draw string to his shorts got stuck in the wheel....(he doesn't go fast so not to worry)..Don tied his string to the handle bars and We all got a good laugh out of it...
